Anyone looking to build a C5R?

A good friend of mine who's in the custom fabrication business just picked up another friend's long term project that he had to bail out of -




This is a factory race kit - #39 of 40 produced. Drivetrain and chassis is 01 Z06. Kit was delivered with no body, interior, fuel tanks, radiator, exhaust. Owner has collected a good part of the rest of the bits and pieces necessary to put it together, including a lot of CF and FG real race body parts. Motor, AFAIK, has never been turned over. It is sealed, oil is in the crankcase, storage was indoors in Northern CA. Aluminum is still shiny, light surface rust on rotors and chassis welds.

A cool part is that none of the body stuff is bonded to the chassis, so in 10min, it was down to this:




and in a few more minutes could have the doors/hood/cowl/firewall out of the car.

My friend is looking for a buyer who will commission him (Blaine Fabrication) to build this into a C5R - He has the scoop on what a Pratt & Miller car looks like under the shiny paint and can build an awesome club racer, or for a few bux more in motor/brakes, a World Challenge ride.

Shoot me a PM if you know of anyone who might be interested. Car, and fab shop, are located in Santa Cruz, CA. I can get any additional info that might be useful as well.
